More notes:
Fails (hangs) with fs blocksize of 1024, 2048, or 4096.
On data=journal mode hangs.  writeback and ordered run fine.

After several runs (hangs), I was able to get some sysrq output
to the serial console.

kernel config:  http://oss.oracle.com/~rdunlap/configs/config-2620-rc4-hangs
message log:    http://oss.oracle.com/~rdunlap/logs/fsx-capture.txt

Can anyone see what fsx-linux is waiting on there?

Thanks,
